Layer 2 · Compute / Virtualization

CyAxis

Ten hypervisors. One API. Zero vendor lock-in.

CyAxis

CyAxis provides a unified VmProvider SPI across every major hypervisor and cloud — provision, migrate, snapshot, scale on KubeVirt, libvirt, VMware, Hyper-V, AWS, Azure, GCP, Proxmox, Nutanix, and OpenStack from a single Java SPI. No competitor covers this many providers behind a single interface.

Use Cases

Where CyAxis wins.

1

Multi-cloud burst capacity

On-prem KubeVirt for baseline, burst to AWS/Azure/GCP during peaks. Same API, same audit, same identity model. No per-provider re-tooling.

2

Cross-cloud VM migration

Move a VM from VMware to KubeVirt with validation and automatic rollback. Verified in production. The only platform delivering this — no competitor offers cross-hypervisor migration.

3

Hypervisor-agnostic disaster recovery

Primary on Nutanix, DR on Proxmox or AWS. CyAxis replicates regardless of underlying virtualization.

4

Engineering dev / test sandboxes

Provision dev environments on the cheapest available capacity. Devs see one Terraform provider; platform team optimizes the backend.

5

Hypervisor consolidation programs

Customer running 3-4 different hypervisors gets one console, one audit log, one role-based access model. Operational cost drops 2-3×.

6

Sovereign cloud OEM

Build a multi-tenant sovereign cloud offering on top of CyAxis. Each tenant can choose KubeVirt, Proxmox, or VMware — all behind the same API.

Key Capabilities

What's inside.

🔄

Cross-provider migration

KubeVirt ↔ VMware live-verified. Snapshot+convert+import flow for cloud providers — only platform offering this.

📊

Unified observability

Same metrics, same logs, same alerts across all 10 providers. Prometheus / Grafana built-in.

🚦

Honest typed failures

Returns NOT_SUPPORTED / CLOUD_IMPOSSIBLE for ops AWS can't do — no silent fake success.

🔌

Open SPI

Add a new hypervisor without forking. Implement the VmProvider Java interface; CyAxis loads it dynamically.

📦

x86_64 + ARM64

Only the major commercial competitors match this; OpenStack is the only other one.

⚙️

Provider-agnostic operations

Power, snapshot, clone, live-migrate, scale work the same across every backend.

vs competition: Replaces vSphere lock-in, Nutanix AHV-only, OpenStack DIY. The only API offering 10 hypervisors behind one interface.
